User has a blog that includes source code with angle brackets in it. I have 
confirmed that the underlying GData feed has his angle brackets escaped, yet 
when he retrieves it using our .Net libraries, it isn't working out. Here is 
the vb code that he is using:

Imports Google.GData.Client 
Module Module1 
    Sub Main() 
        Dim thisService As Service = New Service("blogger", 
"RobFine.com") 
        thisService.Credentials = New GDataCredentials("MYUSERNAME", 
"MYPASSWORD") 
        Dim thisFactory As GDataGAuthRequestFactory = 
CType(thisService.RequestFactory, GDataGAuthRequestFactory) 
        thisFactory.AccountType = "GOOGLE" 
        Dim query As New Google.GData.Client.FeedQuery() 
        query.Uri = New Uri("http://www.blogger.com/feeds/ 
3834455919215962619/posts/default/5777934424638844396") 
        Dim feed As Google.GData.Client.AtomFeed = 
thisService.Query(query) 
        For Each thisEntry As AtomEntry In feed.Entries 
            System.Console.WriteLine(thisEntry.Title.Text) 
            System.Console.WriteLine() 
System.Console.WriteLine(thisEntry.Content.Content.Replace("<br />", 
vbCrLf)) 
            System.Console.WriteLine() 
        Next 
        System.Console.ReadLine() 
    End Sub 
End Module 

As a further example, here is that same entry shown on blogspot:

And that same entry shown after being pulled through the .NET GData 
API:
