Change the internal state to one that is likely far away
from the current state. This method will not be in Py3.x,
so it is better to simply reseed.

Thanks for pointing out.
I'm using the jumpahead() to have multiple streams
in parallel, derived from a single point.
def
jumpRandomState(self):
self.random.setstate(self.randomState)
self.random.jumpahead(1)
self.randomState = self.random.getstate()
Would this be a good alternative?
def
jumpRandomState(self):
self.random.setstate(self.randomState)
self.random.seed(self.random.random())
self.randomState = self.random.getstate()
