I listed anything called a department in the books. My guess is that
you are correct, Accidental Magic Reversal and Catastrophes are one
and the same. Probably they are refered to by either of these terms
for one reason or another.
I haven't had time to read all through the books yet, so these kinds
of details haven't made it into the Lexicon. I will be sitting down
with my notebook and reading through with great care and hopefully
soon have the Lexicon back up to snuff. It's a bit of a desperate
feeling when all this new info floods in. It does take time to get it
all noted.
