Mista, I would check out your overflow bottle and make sure that you still have fluid in it. That would be the big thing that I would be worried about. From the sounds of things, you have a good leak and if it is only the A/C compressor, then you can continue to run the car at the risk of hurting just the A/C compressor (should be fine as long as you are not using your A/C or the defrost modes of your car, general heat is fine). If you are running low on engine coolant, you can drive the car, but you are risking the motor. I can not advocate driving the car from what I am envisioning.

Mista, the best advise that I can tell you is to tell him where the green fluid is coming out in relation to the car (ie, about 6" in from the passenger tires, center of the car, etc). With this knowledge, that will narrow down where he has to look. Granted, you can figure out a lot of this yourself as you should hopefully be able to see under the car right now and look straight up from there.
In short, if the green streak is on the driver's side of the car, that is most surely antifreeze. If it is on the passenger side, if it is inline with the tires, washer bottle fluid most likely. If just in from the tires and it is very little, most likely A/C oil. Just in from the tires and lots of it, antifreeze.
