We are Aliens to them. What if they think we are more intelligent? Another thing that bothers me is when people think of ET as being some sort of wierd color with big black eyes. They could be very similar to us in colors, eyes, hair, ect... What makes you think they speak Earth's languages? It would take time to decipher our words.
