well, you made me doubt, so i checked. adverse and averse are both words and according to dictionary.com, "The adjectives adverse and averse are related both etymologically and semantically, each having “opposition” as a central sense." probably i should have used adversely in that context since aversely is apparently used mainly for people, but i'm not going to change it now because then my parenthetical note would make no sense.
