It depends on how discreet youre trying to be - most mime's arent mute, and even if they were, the point of a silencer is to remove the noise the gun makes when it fires rather than the noise the victim makes when shot.

How do snowplough drivers get to work?

If the snow levels were that high, theyd probably walk. If you had a town where snowploughs were expected to be used often then it would make sense to ensure that snowplough drivers lived relativiely near their place of work.

Why is abbreviated such a long word?
|
It's derived from the latin 'abbreviatus' "Breviatus" means 'to shorten' (the root 'brevis' means 'short'). However the word 'abbreviate' can itself be abbreviated as 'abbrev.'.

Why is there only one monopolies commission?

It's a government body. Most of the government's power is centered around having a monopoly when it comes to regulating bodies/force/etc.
