Perhaps yours is simply a case where nobody knew the answer Bob? Like you stated, I seem to remember that many here implied they wouldn't sell their water for any price.....coming from a forum dedicated to pond management, that would seem to indicate that many folks on here placed the health of their BOW above and beyond what it's monetary worth to a drilling operation would be. Therefore it would seem reasonable to assume that no one here knew what value ($$) to assign to your water.
Farmers are more likely to sell water than someone who manages their pond very carefully for their hobbies. This forum is full of people who manage their ponds for hobbies not just livestock watering holes and to make a profit off of. That's why no one has answered the question.
