Sweet success! Thank you so much. It goes pretty much through the
entire cycle of bright to dim as it turns.

I was going to put an ON/OFF switch with another 3-prong POT when I
couldn't get this 5 prong POT going, but this is great.

Now, since you have been so completely helpful, I am going ask one
more favor - I want to find a source for a 5-prong pots like this
online - but I want to make sure it is smaller and lighter than what I
have, (which is about 1 inch high) - any suggestions?

No you were perfect in your other explanation - I just didn't want to
get it wrong since I have tried a dozen combination and couldn't get
it right. This way is great and I understand it completely. As you
can tell, I don't have a electronic background of any sort (obvious),
but I have experiments myself. I got a regular 3-prong pot to work,
it is just these extra prongs that were throwing me. I would love to
take a course in this stuff, but unfortunately, it is not offered in
my area (yes, I have checked).

I will let you know how it turns out once it is all connected.

Hmm. I thought that I pretty much covered all the bases with unambiguous
wording ...

Right then.

9 to 8. New wire 4 to 7. 5/6 to 3. 1 to 2. Hows about that then ? Follow OK
?
