x <- subset(ss, 2:10)
x <- ss[[2:10]]

But perhaps you do not need to subset, as you can probably use 'stackApply'
for your purposes

Yes.

You could try:
 Jan.ras <-  brick(Jan)

Steven Mosher has a couple of scripts on his blog that deal with climate
data in ncdf files. That is probably the best place to go given that you are
doing something similar. http://stevemosher.wordpress.com/
