Sounds just like what Arden (the original poster) did; after his initial
contact with ATC and being told to stay clear he stopped
transmitting (left the frequency), took off, and flew a course that
avoided entering the Class C. "So after I took of, I started flying a
route taking me around the class C area that extended to the surface."


No, Arden maintained communications with ATC after they were established.
He was on the frequency when the controller called him after departure.



So by your words, we can assume the original request had then
been dropped.


Not by my words. I suggest you review Arden's original message.



Later he said that "Well, the controller then called me by my tail number
and asked some questions ..." So a new communication was established
which therefore implicitly allows entrance to the Class C according to
the regulations that you and others have cited.


How is that a new communication?
