Just found out that I have been planting all my spuds upside down all these years.

Must have been easier to harvest, with all the tubers at the top!

Don't think it would make any difference

Wouldn't he growth 'head upwards' (scientific term ;D)  as with all  things??

Sounds like youve got some very patronising advice there.  ::)
Eyes grow all around the tuber so you decide which way is up when you chit it. even then like everyone said eyes at the bottom will soon grow up to the light.

was is one of those nay sayers?
oh, no no no no no you dont want to do it like that.
Its good to have them around so that you can beat them at the show with all the things youve done "wrong"

It makes no difference which way round you plant them.

Did you watch the Elizabethan Farm programme, they were growing spuds, Ruth was just dropping in the seed potatoes from height, no messing about, and they had a decent crop.
