Lame spam of the day: Meeting invitation from George Adoo

I’m not sure if this one is lame (the subject, text, and double salutation are certainly lame) or clever.  This spam arrived in the form of a meeting invitation.  My Outlook spam filter (SpamBayes) doesn’t seem to look at meeting invitations, and it also slipped past the SpamAssassin filter on my mail server.  Consequently I got a notification of an upcoming meeting with the spammer.  This thread shows that the problem has been around for a while.  Here are the details:
