Just a gut guess based on observation:
we have two dir. hyperbili's at the moment and they look greenish to me
rather than yellow like the usual jaundiced babies.
Speaking of jaundice, here in Israel, we have a real problem in Hebrew
because the word for jaundice is the same as the word for infectious
hepatitis and the mothers all think that their babies are "sick" with
jaundice, and you often see a mom crying because her baby has "been
infected with" jaundice.
Another over 40 who loved Jack's comment.  I turn 50 (gulp) next month.
What do you say about 50's?
