Have you spent more time trying to arrange a meeting than actually attending that meeting?
If you are willing to try something else, there are a number of web based services you can use to find a time that works for everyone.Whenisgood, Doodle, Presdo, and Diarised are a few of the ways you can set up a meeting, send out possible available times, and have your fellow meeters reply with when they are available.
Outlook also has an option for Scheduling, which compares the availability of the list of attendees you enter based on their Outlook Calendars. Ctrl+Shift+A will open a new appointment. There is a Scheduling tab where you can add your attendees and see when everyone is available. (Of course that assumes everyone enters their information into their own Calendar consistently.) Alternately, you can try this.
Finally, if these don't float your boat, you can also try an oldie but goodie approach of passing around an actual piece of paper with dates and times, and have everyone block out when they are not available. Something like this:
