[comp.ai.neural-nets] Neural nets in economics

Does anyone on the net know of instances where neural networks
(or related systems) have been used in economics modeling/prediction
or other applications of this sort?

Also, has any work been done to see what functions (mappings) are
unlearnable by, say, a multi-layer net running backprop (or any
other sort of net)? I am specifically interested in pathologies
here.

I will be extremely grateful for any references. Thanks in advance.
