That depends on your ISP. For some ISPs, using their cache is a bad thing.
There are some ISPs, for example, that change TTLs and that can cause
unexpected delays in propagation of updates. It's probably less likely
now, but in the past cache poisoning was a problem and your ISP's cache
make have bad data in it.
