I dont know how many breweries are in NH but I got into the industry by attending siebel (taking classes online currently) and applying to every brewery remotely close to me. I sent actual letters through snail mail with my resume and cover letter, only managed to get one call back but I did get...

Siebel has a course for running/ starting your own brewery that would probably be more useful. I just finished the concise course and found it useful and interesting if a little overpriced.

I like the books from the classic beer styles series.

I say go for it, I think a light oak character could compliment a marzen nicely. I don't know what you batch size is but i would keep some un-oaked on hand to blend back into the oaked beer incase the flavor is too strong.

I have heard I think. First Sunday of every month everyone blogs about the same thing right ?

I dont think wort sugars need to be present for the isomers to form. As far as i can tell the boiling action is what rearranges the alpha acid molecules.

I put up a good post today. I managed to get an interview with Alan Newman. He founded magic hat and now is partnered with Boston Beer co. In a new venture called Alchemy & Science http://hollisbrewco.blogspot.com/2012/02/interview-alan-newman-of-alchemy.html?m=1

I used to regularly freeze the valves in my fermenator with no I'll effects. I would thaw them with a hair dryer with no I'll effects. Never froze the whole thing solid though.
