   Despite rains, 100,000s in Warsaw, Wadowice (pictured above) and Krakow followed Polish Pope John Paul 2's beatification in Rome on large TV screens.
   "During the ceremonies in the Vatican the streets of Warsaw were empty. You couldn't even get a cab," claimed one viewer.
    In Warsaw, Polish and Vatican flags were displayed on apartments, taxis and buses.
