My pal pointed it out. Joe is right-handed, but uses his fork in his left hand which she said was European. Typically, if you're right handed you use your fork in your right hand..at least here.
I could be wrong but it made sense to me when she pointed it out.
BTW, have not forgot about your PM, just been swamped this whole week.
Ah, that's why I didn't see anything unusual in the way John handles the cutlery in the scene in question. Your pal is right, fork in the left hand, knife in the right hand, that's what's considered well-mannered/well-behaved around here, no matter which hand you usually prefer personally.
I didn't even know that it's different in the US and find it interesting to learn about this. Thanks for letting me know. :-)
As you see, being in fandom is pretty educational. ;-)
As for the PM, don't worry, you don't have to respond if you don't have the time, that's not why I sent it. Just thought you'd perhaps like to know - and there are way, way more interesting things about the event out there. *g*
