I'm not so sure about that. It's the way I was taught to spell
the word, back in the bad old days. I dunno when they dropped
the "e" on "potatoe" and "tomatoe" (they look funny to me without
them), but I didn't find those spellings mentioned even as archaic
in a rather large dictionary just now.
Wikipedia agrees with you: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potatoe
The archaic spelling is still acceptable with me, however. (Of course,
that means squat.)
