Do you play:
1♣ pass 1NT pass
pass 2♣
as clubs?

This auction is not the same as the auction in the original post. I would think responder in our auction is much more likely to be 3352 or similar than someone bidding 1C-1NT in standard.

In any case, if I pass over 1♣, I certainly do not have a hand that would want to show anything resembling takeout or a two-suiter not including clubs over 1C 1S* 1NT.

2♣ was natural. Sorry I didn't say so in the original post.
... that would still not be conclusive proof, before someone wants to explain that to me as well as if I was a 5 year-old. - gwnn

I think 2N will be easier to play than 3D, seems like LHO will have tough defensive decisions and we know a lot about their hand, and hearts are breaking 4-4 anyway. I'm concerned about a trump promotion beating 3D, which won't be hard to find at all with this dummy.
