Seriously do not think that the majority of us 'earthers' believe every alien is a physicist, chemist or whatever else. Thats just silly. But you would expect that if one of you decided to take it upon themselves to act as a spokesperson for their species, they wouldnt be your average, nothing special alien who doesnt know much about anything to do with their own species.
Its kind of like if say if obama turned up to make a speech in a pair of trainers & some old jumper with a ketchup stain down the front of it.

Look at it this way...In a court room a person is testifying, he makes a statement that the opposing attorney feels is a lie. This attorney must then PROVE it is a lie, or accept it as truth.
I CAN "see" an alien not knowing how to spell the word "magnetic"...

NO an alien wouldn't come here and get his ASS whupped by a snot-nosed under-educated moron like me...NO I would NOT be able to single-handedly DESTROY the logic of one-or-more-aliens among us here with "basic debating skills designed to counter baselessness".
False. The opposing attorney (Mr. Mask in this instance) feels that you are lying he can say so out loud, and with conviction. Then all he has to do is give enough evidence to convince the jury that your character is weak, and that your story is has holes.

Which he hasn't done except by the vehement denial of related fact.
Mr. Mask's attitude, and method, is one of the best cases that could be presented to conclude that there is no intelligent on Earth...he makes you all look bad.

Have you any idea what happens to delusional schizophrenics AFTER their self-made world collaspes around them?
Someone should report you to athorities and have you locked up and watched.
And NO..I am not being sarcastic or funny...you are seriously a "dangerous mind" living in a "seriously false" reality.

Got it? Huh? Dangerous person? DO YOU READ MY HUMAN WORDS!?

Well stated, and I would like to add that they would not just drop off an infant, and say go at it. The person that they sent would likely be a diplomat if their job was to contact humans, and help guide them, not a scientist of any kind. And like all diplomats the would would have a good, working knowledge of the place they were from, etc... The fact that you had to look up the name of your planet tells the whole story to me. I mean I know nothing of most scientific things, but you could drop me off on any planet in the universe, and I could tell them I was from EARTH.
