Riemann Zeta as a Psuedorandom Generator

I'm doing some basic work with cryptography right now, and I'm looking into different methods.

My teacher suggested using Riemann's zeta as a base, but I look at it and can't help but notice that it goes off to infinity.  I was wondering if anyone has any knowledge of how it would be used?

I currently use it by just taking it's limit, but I'm pretty sure it's not the most effective way...
Grif: Yeah, and the people in the red states are mad because the people in the blue states are mean to them and want them to pay money for roads and schools instead of cool things like NASCAR and shotguns.  Also, there's something about ketchup in there.
