Jim, if the evolution of intelligence is related to the age of the planet, which is related to the age of the star, we here on this planet happen to be circling a comparitively younger star.
There are star systems, and presumably planets, billions of years older than ours.
All you would need is a planet a few thousand years ahead of us to produce advanced aliens, compared to us.
No, I'm not personally big into aliens, but I do know there are young stars and older stars, and the sun is a little bit younger rather than older.
