once again: you should only use forwarders when you are unable to resolve
yourself. Bind can resolve itself, so forwarders are not required.

Forwarding can also cause useless troubles, just two days ago the google
infrastructure (including their dns servers) had outage in central europe. 
being here, you would cause troubles by using their dns servers as
forwarders - without any real need.
