I see Ea and Dinosaur trying to make sense of this. Please, let us imply some common sense. There are times in which a hero just cannot afford to pass out. When the situation calls for it that is when you see a hero at his best. Blackjack knocked Percy out because he felt Piper's desperation and urgency, meaning he simply had to. Percy could not afford to get knocked out by Kronos or else. Neither could he in the giant fight, blood of olympus and all. I see your point. But the thing is that these books are actually quite inconsistent.

@Vishwauser: Percy actually wasn't knocked out; he was dying from poison though.
