    These are probably replies to queries from your own machines
    who are behind a NAT:
    
    http://www.robertgraham.com/pubs/firewall-seen.html#1.9
    
    This is a PTR response to resolve the IP address of
    192.168.200.82. Since this is a private address, it points
    to one machine behind your NAT resolving the IP address
    of another machine behind your NAT.
