Maybe they are using quantum modulation to communicate.
The galactic internet is all around us!
But we’re too stupid yet to jack in.

Unfortunately, the ET’s have been intercepting MTV and rap videos and are seriously considering whiping out the planet.

If I were an alien civilization, I'd send hordes of flying saucers buzzing over world capitals just to watch the puny humans run back and forth like terrified little ants.
But that's just me...

I think some sort of musical, rhythmic signal might be good. Something that shows a pattern, but not necessarily a mathematical encoding. Then follow up with the math stuff. (We covered the math encoding in college astronomy. Was a fun class. Seriously.)

We’ll be beaming the 2008 Democratic National Convention out into space. Why would any self-respecting ET be caught dead on such a planet?

“To Serve Man”
Bake slowly for seven hours, pull apart meat and mix with Earth sauce, serve on a bed of Earth vegetation, with cold sweet Earth tea.

Send them Star Wars or Star Trek movies, and they will will be scared sh—less of us.
