> I'm not sure how hierarchical categories are supposed to work in Blogger, so I'm assuming that they should work in a manner similar to Blosxom: entries in subcategories should be shown when one of their ancestor categories is shown, and parent categories should be shown when displaying the category of an entry.  
> See http://www.bagginsunderthehill.net/roller/page/Bilbo/20041016
> That category should be "/Games/Reports" but is only "Reports".  The moveablemanilla theme is being used, so it may be an issue with the Velocity macros being used; here is the macro that's used to show an entry's category:
>   $entry.category.name
> Also, entries in subcategories are not shown when an ancestor category is chosen, including if you explicitly choose "/" as the category.  
> Example: http://www.bagginsunderthehill.net/roller/page/Bilbo/Weblog?catname=%2FGames
> Example for explicitly choosing "/": http://www.bagginsunderthehill.net/roller/page/Bilbo/Weblog?catname=%2F
> Subcategories do work but only if you explicitly specify the entire category:
> http://www.bagginsunderthehill.net/roller/page/Bilbo/Weblog?catname=%2FGames%2FReports
> I'm not sure it's a good idea to make it so that entries in subcategories are hidden unless the parent category is chosen, since for example you want a "Roller" category to show all "Roller"-related entries including Bugs, Features, Updates, etc, even if they are in their own subcategories.
> Here are the categories I have and their relationship to each other, from the database:
> select c1.name as name, c2.name as ancestor, a.relation 
>    from weblogcategoryassoc a, weblogcategory c1, weblogcategory c2
>    where a.categoryid = c1.id and a.ancestorid = c2.id;
>    name    | ancestor |  relation   -----------+----------+-------------
>  Games     | root     | PARENT
>  Geek Tech | root     | PARENT
>  General   | root     | PARENT
>  Reports   | Games    | PARENT
>  Reports   | root     | GRANDPARENT
> (5 rows)
