Unofficial Etiquette Pollage

After hearing a discussion on the radio about table manners and cultural/national ways of eating, I got curious and decided to ask you guys about it. According to the program, there is more than one way people in Western countries use a knife while eating. I did not know this, which shows just how much I don't know about culture.

So anyway, a poll:

No, but seriously? How fussy is knife-laying/fork-switching? It's amazing people ever finish a meal. What is the point of it? WHAT?
