I am part of an alien species that can travel light years in spaceships, enter a planet populated by 6,000,000,000 humans and not be noticed, and leave marks on the ground. I think if they can do all that, and wanted to communicate, they could learn English...

Well if they were that intelligent I would hope they would realize the futility and possible danger of direct communication. Besides...geometry is universal. Somehow I doubt there's an english as a second language course for aliens. Besides...if you REALLY didn't want to be noticed would you leave your mark somewhere in Bumblescum, Arkansas (I know...most of them happen in England/Scotland/Ireland...but you get the point) or in downtown NYC? At least that's how they'd play it if they were smart and had done their homework. You can't keep an eye on the human race and not know our tendencies towards violence.
