Before BAUER, POSNER, and KANNE, Circuit Judges.

We have consolidated for decision the appeals in these two social security disability cases, argued to this panel on the same day, because the opinions of the administrative law judges present similar problems that require reversal. Although judicial review of the decisions of administrative agencies is deferential, it is not abject, Scott v. Barnhart, 297 F.3d 589, 593 (7th Cir. 2002); Scott ex rel. Scott v. Astrue, 529 F.3d 818, 821 (8th Cir. 2008); of particular relevance to these appeals, we cannot uphold an administrative decision that fails to mention highly pertinent evidence, Myles v. Astrue, 582 F.3d 672, 678 (7th Cir. 2009) (per curiam), or that because of contradictions or missing premises fails to build a logical bridge between the facts of the case and the outcome. Terry v. Astrue, 580 F.3d 471, 475 (7th Cir. 2009); Giles v. Astrue, 483 F.3d 483, 486 (7th Cir. 2007).
