The fifth answer is correct, and as a matter of fact we have been here for quite some time. We are from the fifth planet orbiting the Algol star system and have had observers on earth for over three centuries. Our native language is unpronounceable to humans, so you may call us Algolians, but please do not confuse us with another alien race visiting your planet called Algoreans.
Unlike the Algoreans, our mission is observation only and non-interference. However just over a half century ago we did covertly provide assistance with your development of computer programming languages.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
