DoD Network Information Center <- Why?
Of course, it's bad habit to just pick a random address and use it inside your network, but it happens a lot, especially with rcf1918 space. It also happens a lot that those addresses can be seen by tracerouting..
Hope this clears things up a bit,

I don't think this could be associated with Dave's incident.
