When meetings don't help

So there is to be a meeting to set straight all that has gone wrong with a certain project (henceforth refered to as The Project). Which is, pretty much, everything.
So the project manager mails out an agenda for the meeting, listing everything that remains to be done, according to him.
Which, of course, doesn't even touch on about 19 out of 20 of the things we think have to be done to get it working. It does, on the other hand, list a lot of things we've never heard of before, and that rely for their completion on the completion of other stillborn projects.
At least it's Dilbert rather than Kafka.
