Comment(by enrique-ramirez):

 Ok, not quite.

 It IS true the above string returns a string of bool(false)'s, but I need
 this outside each post, not once per post.

 Say, for example, I have this code:


 {{{
     <h1><?php if ( in_category('8') ) { ?>Category 8<?php } else {
 ?>Blog<?php } ?></h1>

     <?php query_posts('&cat=-3,-8'); ?>
         <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>

             <ol>

             <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
             <li>... </li>
             <?php endwhile; ?>

         </ol>
     <?php endif; wp_reset_query(); ?>
 }}}

 I don't need an <h1> per post, since this is the "section" title.

 Once again, this is just an example. I'm actually using this to get
 different sidebars per section in my sidebar.php file, but it gives you
 the idea I need the true or false value outside the actual post.
