How do you know where the oil that produced the gas you buy came from? Is there a website where one can order gas made from domestic crude, for home delivery?

How are you going to accomplish this. The idea is lovely, but it's hardly feasible. Do a little study on gas distribution and you'll see what I mean.

It all goes through the same pipeline.

I don't think the real issue here is where it came from. I think what is trying to be said here is "what can we do about this?" When will this end or will it ever end? The way things seem to be going, if someone has a bad day all of us pay for it at the pumps. (and I am NOT calling the disaster in the south a "bad day")
Is there a way for us, the consumer to take control of this? When is enough in fact enough?

"I read a report that said in the first 10 months of 2004, we used 20.4 million bbl/d (barrels per day). So, in a years time let's just say 24 million bbl/d. If we divide that by 12 months, we use 2 million bbl a month. (rough estimation)"
This math makes no sense at all. How did you convert from ~24million barels/day to ~2 million barrels/month?
