When one installs an underground irrigation system, how do you avoid putting a
fork or spade through
the hose? Is the hose buried at a depth that the gardener is not likely to
reach in his/her
labours?

Depends on where you live, in the US, you can go to Lowes or any major
hardware store, you can also get timers there as well.
You can also go to http://www.orbitonline.com
An underground one would use the same type of weeping hose that Dale was
speaking of, but would be completely underground, and you would not have to
worry about turning on the hose and such. The hoses would not be laying
around for a person to trip over.
Depending on the size of your garden, it probably wouldn't cost very much to
do. I did my entire yard a few years ago for less than 1200 bucks.
