Can the meeting organizer drop out of a meeting?

I am trying to remove myself from a meeting as organiser,
but leave the meeting to continue. I know you can remove
all other attendees but is there anyway of getting rid of
the organizer. Even when i remove myself from the
schedule the meeting remains in my calendar...

If this is because you make meetings for other
people, but you do not want to keep the meeting
in your own calendar...

Open Outlook
Right click on your top level folder in your mailbox
(The one that starts with Outlook today - ...)
Select NEW FOLDER...
Type a name like OTHER PEOPLES MEETINGS
In the "Folder Contains" box select APPOINTMENT ITEMS

Then the next time you make an appointment for
someone else, Open the OTHER PEOPLES MEETINGS
calendar folder and make your meetings from that calendar.

You will receive a message that because this is not your
default calendar the appointment responses will not be tallied.
This means that as people accept or decline these meetings
the attendee availability information will not be recorded in
the meeting.

This also allows you to make changes to the meeting if
necessary.
