1) I don't appreciate being called dummy I'm sure you don't either. (See the posting rules regarding personal attacks.)

2) Webster's New World Dictionary gives: havoc, ME Anglo-Fr Havok...."cry havoc" 1 orig., to give (an army) the signal for pillaging.

3) My original comment regarding "no mercy" was probably from a note taken from whatever version of "Julius Caesar" I was reading. I'm not going to bother chasing it down.

If you prefer to use Middle English in your postings, its fine, its good to be educated; but don't call someone a dummy when they correct your spellings to modern English unless you make it clear that you're using Middle English, Klingon, pig Latin, or whatever.
