Here's a little quiz.  Out of the thousands of pieces LEGO makes today,
only 15 have been around since 1957.  Name them.  (Hint:  some pieces
have undergone some changes, but they are still the same basic pieces).

Clarification please? would you count the 2x4 brick as the same? I wouldn't.
Adding tubes is enough of a radical difference to not be the "same". Ditto for
the 2x8 plate, changing from that squarish pattern to the current short tube
and pin approach is a big change.

But it's your quiz, what did you mean?
